Moshiach and the Lubavitcher
Rebbe zt"l

On June 12, 1996, the Rabbinical
Council of America adopted a resolution stating:

"In light of disturbing
developments which have recently arisen in the Jewish community, the
Rabbinical Council of America in convention assembled declares that there is
not and has never been a place in Judaism for the belief that Moshiach ben
David [Messiah son of David] will begin his Messianic mission only to
experience death, burial, and resurrection before completing it."

In the following weeks a number
of articles appeared in the Jewish media criticizing and seeking to discredit
this resolution. The essay presented here, A Good Resolution About Moshiach /
Many Lubavitchers Thank the R.C.A., was written in response to this
criticism in general, and especially in response to a series of articles by
Rabbi Shmuel Butman, Rabbi Isser Zalman Weisberg and Rabbi Zushe Silberstein
which were printed in The Jewish Press .

Please feel free to copy and
distribute this essay wherever possible. If you would like a copy in the form of
a nicely printed booklet, send your request the above address.

You can also participate in the
effort to publicize the Rebbe's true teachings by sending your
tax-deductible donations to "Chassidus Unlimited Inc." at the above address,
which will enable the presentation of more worthy material on this topic, and
from the wide spectrum of Chassidic philosophy in general. We will be grateful
for any contributions.

Another
feature is an article " Bringing Moshiach Now!" by Rabbi Eli Teitelbaum printed in the
Country Yossi Magazine's November issue, along with Rabbi Teitelbaum's response
to several letters in the December issue. Cllick on the title or on the picture

Coming soon will be links to
other articles on this topic, as well as a page of readers' comments, my
replies, and a bulletin board where anyone can post and exchange their views.
